About the Author

A New York City native, Noah Callahan-Bever has been obsessed with comic books since Secret Wars, and hip-hop since Criminal Minded. He has spent his career in service to these passions (and fellow travelers), creating magazines, websites, books, TV shows, music videos, and now a graphic novel. When not making stuff he can be found cooking for his wife or teaching his two daughters how not to go out like a spineless jellyfish.

Gabriel Alvarez is a Mexican-American from Los Angeles, CA. He’s written magazine articles, books and produced a few “cult" television programs.

His three favorite Cypress Hill songs are: 1. “Pigs” 2. “Hand on the Glock” 3. "Stoned Is the Way of the Walk (Reprise)"
